RECIPE:
2 Broccoli Stalks
1 Egg White
1 Cup Water
1 Cup Flour
1/2 Cup Cornstarch
1 tsp Salt (additional salt for after frying)
8 oz Club Soda
1. Cut the broccoli into bite size florets
2. Bring a pot of water to a boil
3. Add broccoli to boiling water allow it to cook for 2 mins
4. Remove broccoli from pot into ice water to stop the cooking process. This technique is called "blanching". It not only par cooks the broccoli but it also makes it a vibrant green color which is perfect for our presentation.
5. To make the tempura batter, add the egg whites and water to a large mixing bowl and whisk until frothy.
6. In another bowl add your dry ingredients and mix well
7. Add the dry ingredients to the egg white mixture and mix until combined.
8. Add club soda then continue with mix until you have a smooth consistent batter similar to a thin pancake batter.
9. Bring a pot of oil to 325 degrees
10. Coat each floret in the batter then fry til golden brown (about 3 minutes).
11. Season with salt as they come out and enjoy!

Nico, I am a VERY amateur cook but I can make Tempura shrimp. I like your cooking instructions for tempura broccoli. I can use the same batter (broccoli first of course) to fry both. I like your laid back approach. I will tune in for more of your videos. Thank you,

[@ChefNico]

Right on Jesse!! I have more tutorials coming so stay tuned!

[@mjamison2802]

[@aliltasteofheavensmith994]

[@fanydiether3190]

You can cook the whole brokkoli head first, and than cut it in parts. Much easier :)

[@jessicaphillips4542]

[@alonzojohnson7955]

😎

[@SoundstarMusic]

[@ChefNico]

bro! this one of my favorites right now. lets make it happen fr fr

[@lynnverse]

🤤🥦🤤🥦😁 awesome tutorial !

[@ChefNico]

Thank you!! (Super late😂)

[@VanBoogie]

Love your delivery and loved how easy you made this look 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 BUT mine did not come out anything like this. The batter? Too watery. Didn’t cling to the broccoli at all 😔 and the broccoli was super soggy and oily after frying for abt 3 mins. Maybe I did something wrong but I followed the recipe and video carefully and it became a epic fail. Had to throw it all away at the end. I really wanted to enjoy this as Fried Tempura Broccoli is my fav but unfortunately this recipe didn’t work out for me smh. Nonetheless, awesome video! and your tempura looked absolutely delicious! 🤤

[@ChefNico]

Yo! Nothing hurts my soul more than a recipe that didn't turn out as I hoped and having to throw everything out. 😩🤦🏽‍♂️ Since a lot of ppl have really enjoyed this video I'm going to recreate it (double checking the recipe) and show other veggies that would be great in a tempura batter. Stay tuned!

[@stephanievane00]

Hmm that Brocoli ain't the only good looking thinggggg

[@ChefNico]

aww right on! ✊🏽☺️😄

[@trigun442]

Searched for tempura broc and this vid is the first to pop! Is it ok if I don't include club soda in the batter?

[@kbs8586]

You can. It just makes the batter light/fluffier.

[@ChefNico]

Yea it yields a better product IMO

[@lifeisthedash]

Just use a table spoon of baking powderrrr!!

[@rockinrollinntrollin616]

Nic to Nico...Great presentation Nico, I liked your laid back approach,..no over the top hood related rapcrap.....I'll use ginger beer ( non alcoholic ) instead of club soda ,, apart from that ..total RESPECT BRO ! just wondering could we have added a cup of brocolli cooked water to the batter,..instead of tap water ? another question cornstarch is that baking powder ? one last suggestion tempera..pronounced tem pura emphasis on the end not the whole word ?

[@ChefNico]

Ginger beer would dope!! I’m gonna try that thanks!

[@dlehmann8353]

Now... Being a chef as you are is Sexy! Good on you!

[@ChefNico]

😂🙏🏽

[@stephaniemarquez6251]

Where'd you get that deep cast iron?

[@ChefNico]

Yo I can’t tell you. I mean I would I just don’t remember. I find dishes and stuff everywhere

[@faithmzizi4172]

You didn't add the quantities, how much butter did you use? Egg whites how many where they?

[@ChefNico]

Yo it’s been a minute but I’ll dig for this recipe and post it. Thanks!

[@detroitluv82]

Baking powder or corn starch?

[@ChefNico]

Cornstarch!

[@lifeisthedash]

Im gonna follow this except put it in the air fryer. By tossing the brocc in some sesame oil. Then dipping them and placing them in the air fryer!!!

[@ChefNico]

Let me know how it turns out! I don't own an air fryer.

[@divatravels9121]

Thumbs up 👍🏾this one easy on the eyes 😂

[@ChefNico]

😂🤣thanks

[@femininejourney7649]

Do you have to use flour

[@ChefNico]

Sorry for the late response. But no, I actually do half flour and cornstarch now. You can just use cornstarch but you'll have to use a little more.

[@howardharaway2259]

Why not add beer to the eggs and flour instead of plain ol' water ? A medium body type lager.

[@ChefNico]

That could work for sure. I’m not a big fan of beer so I’m bias. But good suggestion

[@davidtalks2366]

How much baking soda did you use

[@ChefNico]

None cornstarch

[@patriot3908]

Flour ?? Do you mean that all purpose flour??

[@ChefNico]

Yes!

[@dolorpillora8964]

What means buttercup of water? No any dictionary can explain it

[@ChefNico]

Dolor Pillora don’t know what you mean, sorry

[@BlackDiamond-qb9pc]

At 2:04 I heard 'and about a Cup a Water'

[@ChefNico]

Maria Watkins ooooooh thanks for clearing this up. “About a cup of water” 👌🏽

[@BlackDiamond-qb9pc]

@@ChefNico 😊👍🏾You're very welcome.

[@rambansal3144]

Do we have to use egg?

[@ChefNico]

No I’ve seen it don’t with out. Might have to add baking soda for the volume. I’d have to research tho.
